Engineers, contractors, architects and other construction professionals are always in need of more professional development credits and new skills.
We have two offerings to share with you today:
EPDM GEOMEMBRANE INSTALLATION TRAINING
Firestone, manufacturer of the popular PondGard EDPM geomembrane product, offers a 4-hour seminar throughout the year and in multiple sites across the United States. The session combines classroom demonstrations, discussion with expert staff and video training. It is designed for individuals interested in residential and light commercial lining projects (decorative ponds, retention ponds, waterfall and water features, etc.).
The next sessions (with links to details):
* August 14 – Westminster, Colorado – NOTE: only three seats remained in this session as of the evening of August 12
* August 22 – Grant, Michigan
* September 10 – Uniontown, Ohio
Contact Firestone about future offerings and how to get a seminar in your state or region.
PDH CREDITS FOR DESIGN SEMINAR
– AUGUST 21, BIRMINGHAM, ALABAMA –
The next Civil Applications and Design Seminar from Tensar is August 21 in Birmingham, Alabama.
One of the interesting aspects of Tensar’s approach is that the variety of speakers, who come from a mix of public and private entities, shape the level of depth and dedicated time to the needs of the attendees (who are polled for subject needs ahead of the seminars).
Topics for the next gathering may include geosynthetics in pavement design, reflective cracking reduction, waste containment applications, foundations, steep slope stability, design and construction of mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) walls, and wastewater treatment. Participants can earn up to 8 PDH credits.
Contact Tensar about future sessions.
